Abstract

PURPOSE:To heat a heating member gradually by decreasing surface temperature difference in the heating member in an induction heating system. CONSTITUTION:Information on temperature difference in an heating member detected by plural number of temperature detecting means 9, information on temperature difference detected by the temperature detecting means 9 and a standard temperature difference set in a standard temperature difference setting means 16 are compared with each other. When the standard temperature difference is larger than the others, heating of the heating member 6 is continued, and when the standard temperature difference is smaller than the others, the heating to the heating member 6 is stopped. By repeating the heating/ stopping of the heating member 6, the heating member 6 is heated gradually up to a set temperature while maintaining the standard temperature difference. Thereby, the exothrmic member is heated while decreasing surface temperature difference.

[Prior Art] Conventionally, heating means for bookbinding uses a sheathed heater as a heat source to heat melt adhesive set between the folded part of a bookbinding member and a bundle of sheet-like recording materials to be bound. Bookbinding was performed by heating the paper to melt the hot-melt adhesive.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, in the above-mentioned heating method, since a sheathed heater is used as a heat source, it takes time to raise the temperature of the heat generating member, and even if heating of the heat generating member is started, thermal melting occurs. It took a considerable amount of time to reach a predetermined temperature suitable for the melting temperature of the adhesive. For this reason, a bookbinding apparatus using induction heating, which has a heating time several times faster than that of a sheathed heater, can be considered.

However, in such an induction heating device for bookbinding, the temperature variation on the surface of the heat generating member is large due to the non-uniformity of the high frequency magnetic flux generated by the device. There is a possibility that areas where the agent has dissolved well and areas where it has not dissolved sufficiently coexist. Additionally, if the temperature of the heat-generating member is set higher than the melting temperature of the adhesive and the heating time is set for a long time, the binding member may become overheated or deformed during binding. There is a risk. That is, the temperature on the surface of the heat generating member varies, and the temperature becomes too high in some parts, resulting in the paper being burnt. In other words, since the temperature difference between the heat generating members becomes very large, the surface temperature of the heat generating members increases as time passes. Furthermore, it is not known how much surface temperature difference will ultimately occur due to differences in the surface temperature of the load at the start of heating.
